Kurzfassung:
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a complex disease, caused by a combination of genetic, epigenetic and environmental factors common to other related autoimmune diseases including Multiple Sclerosis (MS) and Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) [1]. Using state of the art Bioinformatics tools we are able to formulate an ensemble of associated components (genomic grammar) for each disease and distinguish important differences and common aspects in a specific group of disease such as ensembles of autoimmune diseases [2] . Objectives To create, collect and evaluate the most credible and unique gene variants, epigenetic variants and single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) causing the basis of an immune disease (the genomic grammar of the disease), which could potentially assist in the process of the RA disease prevention, diagnosis and treatment [3]. Methods RA related publications from the PubMed have been analyzed using data mining and semantic techniques towards extracting the candidate causative SNPs. The extracted knowledge has been filtered, evaluated, annotated, and classified in a structured database which also includes GWAS information regarding SNPs. Additional clinical, genomic, structural, functional and biological information was also extracted from biological databases including dbSNP, LitVar, ClinVar and OMIM and cross-correlated with other available autoimmune disease related SNP databases, including the Demetra application, Epione application and Panacea application databases [3, 4]. Results A holistic genetic map of the studied autoimmune diseases with more than 2000 related SNPs has been estimated and specific sub-clusters with crucial nodes have been identified across the RA, SLE and MS diseases. Based on these results, the three studied autoimmune diseases share a 10% common SNPs genetic background (Figure 1 and Table 1) [5]. The optimal genomic grammar of the RA contains 1682 SNPs, with 73% responding to non-coding regions and 27% responding to coding regions of more than 1.300 genes, pseudogenes, primers and promoters. RA also shares 464 common SNPs with SLE and 113 with MS. Table 1. Common Related Genes based on the analyzed SNP targets in the studied disease. A/A Gene / Region A/A Gene / Region 1. ADAM33 2.

Three class Venn diagram of the genomic grammar between RA, MS and SLE. Conclusion The identification of the optimal genomic grammar in RA will help towards understanding the nature of the disease. Specific genetic targets via determined SNPs could act as biomarkers that aid in forming the right diagnosis [6].
